Plan to add information on Naegleria fowleri presence in the United States
editWill add information over some of the major studies done on National Parks and Large bodies of water in which the microbe in question has been found. --Alfonzaux (talk) 00:59, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
minimally chlorinated concentration seems wrong
edit"poorly maintained or minimally chlorinated (under 0.5 mg/m3 residual)" is probably mistaken, and should be 0.5g/m3 or 0.5mg/l.
Minimum chlorine concentration in pools seems to be around 1ppm according to https://ncceh.ca/documents/practice-scenario/pool-chlorination-and-closure-guidelines
